Because today is mother's day, I thought I would write about these two incredible women. This is my mom and her best friend, aunty Francesca, a second mommy to me ever since I was a little. Her daughter, Nora, has been one of my best friends since I can remember. Our mommies raised the both of us. If you can see in the top pictures, my mom is holding Nora and Aunty Francesca is holding me. They nurtured us with love and gave us an unforgettable childhood together. Noras mommy was a lover of life and had the kindest spirit. Although her time on Earth was limited, she enjoyed every second of it. I think that's something she taught us all. To take hold of precious memories and to do the things we want to accomplish before time runs out. Her spirit lives in all of us. We all miss her so much, but I bet Heaven is treating her pretty great. Today, I send love to my two mommies, who've both taught me so much.
